Ingredients

Just cashew pieces and nothing else.

Recipe

Soaked and blended cashews make the most amazing cream filling for pies or flans, and it's suitable for vegans and those avoiding dairy foods. Here is a recipe for the cashews blended with banana and citrus fruits, but you can blend it with so many other things too.

Citrus, banana, cashew cream filling
makes enough for a 10 inch deep pie crust, maybe more.

120g cashews, soaked 6-8 hours
2 bananas, peeled and broken into chunks
8 dates, pitted*
1 whole orange, zest and juice
Half a lemon, zest and juice (start with 1/2)
Half a lime, zest and juice (start with 1/2)
2 teaspoons vanilla, or vanilla pod

water, as needed

Place soaked and drained cashews in a food processor or blender and process into a paste. Add remaining ingredients (except water), and blend thoroughly, scraping down the sides as needed, until as creamy and smooth as possible. Add water as needed to adjust thickness (how much juice you get out of your fruits will affect this too). This may take 5 minutes depending on the strength of the processor/blender. Taste and add more zest if desired. Use as a pudding or pie/tart filling with fresh fruit. Serve chilled.

*the dates do darken the cream up a bit, so you can use agave to taste if you prefer, or leave it out if you just want to bring out the banana taste.

Thanks Swell Vegan for the recipe.

As well as being a delicious source of veggie protein in stews, soups and stir-fries, these make a lovely snack - either eaten as they are, or grilled and covered in sesame seeds and soy or tamari sauce. Also mixed with other nuts and with dried fruit they make a great home-made trail mix. They go particularly well with Chinese and Thai seasonings.
